He challenges conventional views of how to succeed in the industry by seriously exploring and promoting independence in his DO FOR SELF TOUR. He inspires aspiring entertainers to aim high, create windows of opportunity and persevere through challenging stages of a budding career. In addition, he encourages networking so that those who attend the workshop may build alliances to work together toward a more prosperous future.

His style is to guide a highly interactive, comprehensive and fun workshop that will satisfy the attendee’s thirst for good information while encouraging them to come back for more! Much more than a workshop facilitator, JaWar works hard to ensure that each workshop gives out important information that will aid each attendee’s professional and personal development. Interactive group exercises are aimed at removing the formal and informal barriers that impede the networking process.JaWar is dedicated to inspiring people to be the best they can be, in turn, fostering an environment that will support the family unit and improve the community at large. He believes community involvement means improving the world around us and has taken an active role by offering workshops with discounted rates including food and clothing drives that are willingly donated to less fortunate community members. He believes in his vision of producing a workshop that will be both useful and entertaining. In addition, he understands the importance of communicating with the client before an event, so as to tailor each workshop around the objectives of the event and the particular goals the client wishes to emphasize. He does this by making sure the workshop offers specific information that can be helpful to the neophyte or the seasoned professional in the music business.
